I am just wondering when this world will become a better place. I mean I am about to bring a child into this world but everyday you turn on the TV or pick up your newspaper and you read about school shootings or rapes, women cutting babies out of other womens belly, war and etc. I just sometimes wish this wasn't the world I will have to bring my child into because I believe we as people have the power to shape this world into something better but yet people use it in the wrong way.

Not baboes!!! :eek:


It will all get better after the zombie holocaust. Just be patient. :O:up:
 
Honestly, I don't see the world getting any better......it's going straight down the ****ter. :(

You know what would fix the world? A damn alien invasion. :o after we upload a computer virus into their mothership, thus destroying the bastards, we will all unite.

...

But we would probably nuke the planet knowing trying to destroy them, since the human race is a bunch of idoits overall. Polluting the planet and nukes= dumb.

:cmad: that cat is UGLY it can make a blind person twitch!

I would speculate that the world IS better now than it's ever been. Given our world population and technological and medical advances, despite wars that erupt every now and again, people of the world are much better taken care of than ever.

It's not like rapes, murders and all manner of human strife began only recently.
 
Making the world a better place starts with you. Raise your child with proper values and teach him/her to be a good person.

Throughout your childs life he/she will look to you for guidance, even when they are adults. Be there for them no matter what, good or bad.

It's scary, yes... But you and your wife need to have strength and courage.
 
First of all, lame. Quoting a John Mayer song in the title that is.
 
First off I don't listen to John Mayer so I didn't know this was his song. I listen to Gospel and Jazz only now.
 
You know, you could try and make a change too.

You could start by hanging out with Bono, Brad Pitt, and Angelina Jolie.

This is really good advice. I think it has to start with the children. Manners and respect must be brought back. Possibly we all need to be more disciplined in how we treat others.

It might help if you look like her brother.
Bleach your hair white, and get some plastic surgery on your lips and you'll be one step closer to saving the world my friend. Oh, and adopt some babies from some 3rd world country, too.
 
STOP WAITING!!! START WORKING!!!

You want the world to change, then start changing it. Start with the small stuff, the little kindnesses. Mow your neighbours lawn. Drop off a gift at a strangers door. Give that homeless guy a sandwhich. Give your old clothes and things you don't use to Goodwill or the Salvation Army. Donate to local charities. Volunteer at the community center, library or old folks home.

Stop whining about it and MAKE A DIFFERENCE.
 
The world is a horrible place....
 
Seriously. This world on the verge of hitting 10 billion people. Which is said to be it's capacity. So the world will change, we won't be on it.
 
I think the world is becoming a better place....

unfortunately, media is growing at a much faster rate and fear sells so although it may not be getting any worse than it use to be, it certainly sounds like hell....

if you want to live in a nice world, simply limit your exposure to the media. A lot of people who don't watch television don't seem to have such a bad view on the world.

Ha, the world will change it's orbit and we'll be hurled into the sun.
 
Times will change. Beleifs will change. But people will never change. There will always be war. There will always be disease. There will always be famine. There will always be an ugly side of the world. The best that man can do is do good for himself, those around him, and try to make the ugly side a bit less ugly.
 
You know, why can't everyone just get along. Why do some people have to persecute others for being different. The world sucks, but I try my best to be nice to everyone, but sometimes it gets damn hard when other people are jerks to me, but at least I go home feeling good about myself.
 
turn off the tv and stop reading newspapers, there, the worlds a better place.
